Andy, an affordable Smartphone Robot for Robo Enthusiasts

In our constant effort to empower students and robo-enthusiasts with the opportunity of being able to develop world class robotics, we have finally been able to launch our product "Andy"

Andy aims to solve the following problem:
Robotics is a very expensive affair due to the high costs of the hardware involved. A robot system with camera, wifi, network, inertial sensors, gps and such are unaffordable on an individual basis.

We fail to see that today's smartphones actually have all the sensors and hardware which we need to develop world class robotics. Moreover they are programmable

Andy uses the power of smartphone and brings affordable robotics to students and individual enthusiasts so that they can own and develop on their personal robotics platform

With a pledge of $78 or more, you will be one of the first to own your own smartphone-powered robot!

Also You are forgetting rovo2 , has proper integration using Apple connector , so that apps like skype and live feeds work with audio/video and do not use a audio link. It would have been good if you went with Android ADK support freeing up audio.

Also dont mind , but at current state it is a v1 clone of rovo and which is priced much more than it.

As for open source , I would like schematics and programming details , so that someone like me can make it do what he wants and add a few sensors etc . But price also need to be like 3k or something.
